UPSSSC VDO · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
UPSSSC VDO (Village Development Officer) is a Group 'C' recruitment conducted by the Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission, the body the state created for direct recruitment to Group 'C' posts notified by the State Government. The Commission's own account traces its origin to a Subordinate Services Selection Board set up by an Ordinance in 1988, replaced by Act No. 7 of 1988, then dissolved on 31 May 1990 and converted into a Commission with a Chairman and a maximum of five members; the 1993 Amendment Act made it a Department of the Government. Candidates should treat upsssc.gov.in as the single authority for the advertisement, post-wise syllabus, answer keys, admit cards, results and allotment, because eligibility conditions and vacancy details live in the notification, not on coaching pages. The UPSSSC VDO study guide has 4 sections and about 1,168 words.
